I’ve lived on and off here in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada since my teens. And I have never seen an Orca from the regular land of town, until today! JJ and I were getting in our morning ritual, a walk in the leash off area of Dallas Road … when we entered two people peering… Read more »
A Note from Christina
Whew, where is this year going eh!? Time is whizzing by. It’s May … so that means Fundamentals of Interactive-Visuals, the In-Person version. Given the number of online courses I run now, this is one of the few opportunities that I actually get to meet folks face-to-face, and place markers in hot hands! It’s always… Read more »
I’M A BIG FAN OF GABOR MATE
Just finished another book by Gabor Mate. Been a fan for a while. If you aren’t familiar with him, he’s a Vancouver physician and author specializing in addiction (and its underlying cause – PAIN).

Calmed By White Buffalo Calf Woman
I’ll admit it – it irritated me … a pro bono client for my free BodyTalk Offer stood me up today. On a Saturday no less. You gotta understand, I hardly EVER get stood up anymore in my regular practice. Very, very rarely someone might screw up their time conversion (cause I work with folks in lots… Read more »
